Default BBK Throttle Body

ok, i just found a new dual 62mm throttle body from BBK that supposedly adds 8+HP. i am seriously thinking about ordering this but first i was wondering if anybody knew what the factory size of our throttle body is. i know it is dual and i am thinking around 52-55mm but does anybody know for sure???

yes it was what i did before i wrote that. did you try to purchase it on that site? there is no part # yet for it and the screen that you would order it from is not up and running yet. the add on the screen before you order stated an early summer release and to stay tuned. you can't get um yet or at least not from this site (online that is) it might be diffrent if you call them i dunno. i was just asking you if you tryed to get it because i was messing around and wanted to see how much shipping was on this unit and you can order it yet from there site. but they do have it priced already that is good

yeah, no kidding. i am just not really in the mood to go to the dyno again and get my afr recalibrated just to accomidate a new throttle body. i might wait and get it when i get my 100 shot of dry nitrous. get em tuned at the same time. i'll let you when i find anything out though

oh well, it's just money right???

are you gonna order that one or wait till RPM gets it in stock. i will probably wail till they get it since they are located about 10 miles from my apt even though then wont let me drive there and pick it up; UPS only takes a day to get it to me.

Just a curiosity question.
Why are you going with a dry shot? I have been kinda looking and reading ( just enough to get me in trouble ) and it looks to me that a wet shot is a better option than a dry shot. Not as much of a risk of leaning out. Am I confused on the concept ( VERY POSSIBLE ).

yea i thought a wet shot was a lot safer but i see guys getting the dry all the time is it just cheaper and less of a hassle to install or what?
